Poll - Sherwood - got rid

[Des Little]

I'd get Big Sam in at Xmas if we are still in trouble, then review it next summer.

[LTA]

We picked the wrong time to choose a total novice of a manager as well as buying 10 unproven at this level players.  It's not going to end well in my view.  But I also think we have to give him until Christmas (no later) to try and sort it out.  One thing that did cross my mind bringing someone in like Harry to assist him like Middlesvilla did with Very Tenderballs a few years ago.

God no.  Are we seriously suggesting Redknapp at Villa Park?  One cockney spiv is enough.

Allardyce is available......

Big Sam is an obvious and logic fix. As much as he's derided, not only would he keep us up but I'd be reasonably confident he'd get us to 12 or 13th so better than recent season.

The trouble is instead of the give him a deal until the end of the season and see how it goes it will be a 3 year deal just like Sherwood got and we'd start going round in circles once people get bored fo the style of play.

It's a no brainer

[Tom_Mc9?]

Keep. Complete lack of patience with a young coach and a new team being shown.

[SoccerHQ]

I'd look at someone like Luciene Favre given it's still reasonably early in the season.

He had a bad start at Monchengladbach this season but in the 4 years he did a magnificent job, qualified them twice for Champions league in four seasons.

That would be my left field pick from abroad.

[silhillvilla]

Why can't we just get MON back. Closure and all that all round I'd say.

[villan from luton]

I don't agree re Allardyce. The players we have got in have talent, but they are not suited to long ball hoofing, as shown the other night v the noses. Sherwood has made lots of mistakes recently and needs to get it sorted, but I still hope he can. It has to be one of Sanchez/Westwood, but even so the fact the 3 centre midfielders allowed Milner to get beyond them while ball watching is not really the managers fault.

I can't bring myself to read this thread. Are our fans for real? It's not even feckin October yet.

[SoccerHQ]

Give him to xmas.

Why though? Not only could that mean that we're even further in the shit, it will also mean that we're looking for a new manager (and backroom staff, presumably) at a time when we should be looking at strengthening the squad.

I'm old fashioned, I like to give managers half a season as we've then played everyone once and you can properly judge things. Believe me if we're still bottom 3 I'd want him out just like everyone else, I'm not far off that now really.

There's still time, we didn't pot Lambert until Mid February and still stayed up. We have a good run of fixtures over xmas new year so we could easily get new manager syndrome and a few wins.

1 win in 10
1 point from 18

Give him to xmas.

we will be cut adrift by then. too late

We won't be if we're on 15 points. Last season we had about 20 points around boxing day and weren't even in the relegation zone.

Table looks very bad at minute but beat Stoke and we're back out of bottom 3.

[KevinGage]

Don't like the bloke, think he's a spoofer.  But I voted no for the time being.

Ask me again in December.

Called it ages ago .

Maybe but we were playing well in that period.

The next two games after that were Spurs away and cup semi final, two of our best performances in recent times considering the opposition.
